The Fastback GT Blue Demon

The Fastback GT Nomad celebrates one of Chevy’s most iconic motorcars, designed as the first American two-door “sport wagon.” Initially intended as a luxury compact family cruiser, the Nomad found a cult-like following in Californian surf culture thanks to its distinctive utilitarian coupe conception.

The Nomad is a surfer’s road trip from LA to Santa Cruz on the Golden State’s Highway 1. The brown ceramic bezel against the radial brushed baby blue dial evokes dramatic canyon ridges against the turquoise Pacific California coastline. Brown perforated cowhide leather and rubber hybrid strap emphasize Fastback GT Nomad’s nostalgic spirit.
